At least in my worlds, the people who willing reject healing and restoration magic is because it goes against their religion. Instead of “It makes me special and unique!”
I kind of like the religious excuse. I'd imagine a temple or monastery having a person wheelchair bound, with the grounds having some accommodations, but I'd also imagine the monks there wouldn't have blinged out chairs.
In my world, it is the followers of Ilmater, who is the god of perseverance, suffering, and martyrdom. So I thought it thematically appropriate that his followers would forgo having limbs restored after a severe injury, instead getting creative to survive with their new weakness.
Which is to say you are right, anyone wheelchair bound will be in as simple of a vehicle as it takes to get the job done.
To be fair, you can still get “life-saving” magic done (healing spells, restoration against deadly aliments). It is just limb restoration that is forbidden.

Sounds like someone won't last long in a group, unless they're amazing herbalists with a knack for restorative potions.
